Dräger 8101681 Gas Detector Tube is a single-use colorimetric tube designed for rapid measurement of hydrochloric acid and nitric acid concentrations in ambient air. Packaged as a box containing ten tubes, each tube provides a straightforward means to screen for acid gas presence and concentration when used with an appropriate Draeger tube pump. The tube design supports quick, on-site testing with a short measurement time, enabling results within approximately 1.5 to 3 minutes depending on the specific dose range selected. The glass tube includes a break-off tip for safe sampling and handling, aligning with common field-use practices for gas detection in industrial environments.
Construction and features of the tube are tailored to measure two acid gases in a single test: hydrochloric acid at 1–10 ppm and nitric acid at 1–5 ppm, with documented measurement ranges spanning 1–10 ppm and 1–15 ppm. The dual-detection approach allows for rapid screening of potential acid gas exposure where multiple species may be present. The standard method relies on colorimetric change within the glass tube chamber, which is read after the designated sampling period. This product requires the appropriate Draeger pump and consumables to execute the measurement sequence, and is intended for spot-checks and preliminary assessments in workplace environments where acid gas monitoring is warranted.
Practical considerations include using the tubes as part of a defined sampling protocol to ensure consistent results, proper disposal of spent tubes, and adherence to any site-specific safety procedures. The packaging specifies a box quantity of 10 tubes, which supports replenishment for ongoing testing programs. While compatible workflow details aren’t included in the provided data, users typically rely on Draeger’s standard pump units and documentation to interpret results and maintain measurement accuracy over time.
